Cold blood cardioplegia

H Laks, HB Barner and G Kaiser

The technique of myocardial protection by means of a cardioplegic solution consisting of cold blood (10 degrees C) with potassium (30 mEq. per liter) is described. A disposable cooling coil is used and a separate pump head for coronary perfusion is avoided. The aortic perfusion cannula can be used for venting of the left ventricle and subsequently for venting of air. This method was used in 125 consecutive patients undergoing coronary revascularization and in 73 consecutive pediatric cardiac surgical procedures with excellent results.
